Cedric Thornton, Undrafted Free Agent,Defensive Tackle


Thornton, Cedric So. Arkansas 6035 309 5.26
Started 22 games in his career. A physical player who gives a
good effort and pushes the pocket in the passing game. Disruptive
in his play. Sudden first step quickness. Needs to improve his
pass rushing technique and improve his hand use, but has the
strength to knock an offensive lineman off balance. Did not
look out of place at the Senior Bowl. Numbers dropped off in
2010 but has been productive for the past two years. Question
instincts and recognition at times. Could see the play develop at
this level but will need to digest quicker on Sundays. Aggressive
in his play with his long arms and big hands. A developmental
player who has measurables but will need to elevate his position
skill level. 2009 stats: 80 tackles, 23 1/2 TFL, 8 1/2 sacks.
2010 stats: 52 tackles, 13 TFL, 1 1/2 sacks.
